    Hallo mate. Welcome to the forums.

    real password protection is a funny old game. Its not as simple as just a HTML tag, I am afraid.

    Also, do not be tempted by anything JavaScript for passwords. It just doesn't cut the mustard, I am afraid.

    The two, best ways to password protect are either using a server-side language (like Perl, PHP or ASP ) or by using htaccess.

    For Perl, PHP and ASP scripts, free, try http://www.hotscripts.com

    For a great tutorial on htaccess, try http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/html/97/08/index2a.html?tw=backend

    Have a go at these, and choose whichever suits you better. Any questions, get back to us...

    I am afraid not.

    HTML on its own is simple markup language, and asking it to do clever things would be like asking a newspaper to play a radio station.

    For s simpler solution, try searching for a free password gate. I found this one - http://www.4allfree.com/shpp.htm
    but did not get a chance to try it out.

    Also, I highly recommend you staty away from bravenet.com . They are not very nicepeople.

    thanks, but a friend of mine gave me a site (Javefile.com) it's really cool. You find what your looking for, then it lets you download a text file containing the Javascript or applet for the thing u wanna do. U might wanna check it out.

    Welcome to the forums ZanarkandAbe

    As Dean pointed out earlier
    Also, do not be tempted by anything JavaScript for passwords. It just doesn't cut the mustard, I am afraid.
    It would take just a click of the mouse and no special software to view your user/password(s) It is not a matter of if somebody will get them, but when many people do.
